On the completion of four years of the Manohar Lal Khattar-led BJP government later this month, public meetings would be organised in all 22 districts of Haryana, a state minister said Wednesday.

The first such public meeting will be held on the occasion of birth anniversary of former Haryana Deputy Chief Minister Mangal Sein at Rohtak on October 27, Minister of State for Cooperation Manish Kumar Grover told reporters here.

Khattar was sworn in as the chief minister of BJP's first government in Haryana on October 26, 2014.

To mark four years of the Khattar-led government, Grover said public meetings would be organised across the state, and Agriculture Minister O P Dhankar would be the coordinator of the meetings.

During these meetings, people would be informed about the four years' achievements of the present state government, Grover said.

The public meetings would be completed in the month of November, 2018, he added.

Replying to another question, he said that compensation would be awarded to farmers for the damage caused to their crops due to recent spell of heavy rain irrespective of the fact whether they have got crop insurance or not.

He said the BJP is all set to hold municipal elections and the dates would soon be announced. The BJP would contest these elections on party symbol, he added.
